System: I am always awesome in the NBA
Chapter 15
"Haha! Gary, what Lin said is the truth!"
Everyone in the locker room burst into laughter.
The second half of the game began.
As soon as the Lakers players walked onto the court, a strange look flashed across Larry Brown's face.
"Their aura seems... a little different!"
It's hard to describe the feeling, it's as if the Lakers completed a complete transformation in the short time of halftime.
As expected, the united Lakers were unstoppable in the second half.
Kobe and O'Neal no longer fought alone, but cooperated with each other, passing, pick-and-roll, and screen, playing smoothly.
The other players were even more motivated and fought hard for every ball.
The Pistons were caught off guard by the Lakers' sudden change. Their originally tight defense was exposed and their offense was frequently blocked.
The Lakers completely controlled the rhythm of the game and the score difference gradually widened.
To make matters worse, Hamilton was running out of energy.
Lin Hao was like a tireless mad dog, trying his best on the defensive end and constantly confronting him physically on the offensive end.
The famous running man was actually exhausted, and the defensive intensity dropped a level.
Not long after, Kobe broke into the Pistons' inside line, attracted a double-team, and passed the ball to Lin Hao who was in an open position.
Lin Hao jumped decisively and the basketball went into the net.
"It's incredible! Lin Hao made 5 of 5 shots and scored 15 points!"
"The Pistons' perimeter was like paper to him!"
"He and Kobe teamed up to break through the Pistons' defense!"
the commentator exclaimed.
With the combination of Kobe, O'Neal and Lin Hao, the Pistons never had a chance to turn the tables.
The final whistle sounded.
The score is fixed at 87:76.
The Lakers completely defeated the Pistons.
The Lakers players left the court to the boos of their home players.
O'Neal scored 35 points, 15 rebounds, 3 assists and 5 blocks.
Kobe scored 28 points, 8 rebounds, 6 assists, 2 steals and 1 block.
Lin Hao's statistics were 15 points, 3 rebounds, 1 assist, 1 steal and 1 block.
It seems that he didn't score many points, but he made 5 of 5 shots, and all of them were three-pointers.
His containment outside the three-point line created countless opportunities for Kobe's breakthroughs and Shaq's strong attacks under the basket.
In addition, he also interfered with Hamilton's shots many times.
In addition to helping the team win, he gained a total of 17 attribute points.
At this time, the total score of the two teams reached 3:3, and the next step was the seventh game.
After the game, Lin Hao was once again qualified to attend the press conference.
"Phil, Lin Hao was just a role player before. What made you put him in the starting lineup for such a crucial game in the finals?"
a reporter asked curiously.
"I was moved by this kid's tenacious spirit, strong defense, accurate three-point shooting, and big heart.
I am convinced that he is our perfect piece for the championship!"
The Zen master said firmly.
The reporters were shocked.
I never thought that the Zen Master would think so highly of Lin Hao.
"Shaq, we've noticed that this season, you and Kobe have been having issues with each other and haven't been passing the ball much.
But in the second half of the game, you passed the ball to Kobe twice, and Kobe passed the ball to you four times.
Why is your transformation so drastic?"
Another reporter pointedly raised such a sensitive topic.
"The reason we changed is because of Lin Hao!"
Shaq said in a deep voice.
"Lin Hao?"
The reporters looked at each other.
Can a role player really change your two big stars?
"Yes, that's him!"
O'Neal nodded emphatically. "In the locker room, Lin Hao told me, 'The Finals is not the time for women to scheme against each other!' 'When you're the boss, you have to act like a boss.'"
The reporters were all stunned.
How dare a role player say such explosive words to the team leader?
"Kobe, do you think so too?"
A reporter asked Kobe a question.
"That's right!"
Kobe shrugged. "Lin Hao impressed me with just one sentence. He said, 'Jordan wouldn't do such a jerk!'"
"Lin Hao, even Phil Jackson couldn't reconcile the conflict between Shaq and Kobe, how did you do it?
Also, what made you say this, risking offending the team's top two players?"
Another reporter asked Lin Hao.
"There's a wonderful book in our Chinese country called 'Romance of the Three Kingdoms'. It contains a wonderful tactic called 'provocation'. I'm just applying it."
Lin Hao said so.
……
The next day, Lin Hao's name once again occupied the front pages of major media in the United States.
"The Chinese player created another miracle, scoring 16 points to help the Lakers win!"
"The wonderful Chinese novel 'Romance of the Three Kingdoms' helped the OK team reconcile!"
"The OK combination is no match for the Chinese wisdom, and 'provocation' is the key to the Lakers' victory!"
……
"He's an accurate three-point shooter, strong on defense, and doesn't hoard the ball. He's simply my best partner!"
LeBron James watched the entire game with excitement in his eyes.
Thinking of this, he picked up his phone and called the team management.
"He made five of five three-pointers in the finals. He's definitely my idol!"
A boy who looked like an elementary school student from Ohio, USA, said this after watching the game.
……
When news of Lin Hao's amazing performance in the finals reached China, the entire Chinese nation was in an uproar.
On the Internet, major sports forums were instantly flooded with related posts.
Fans excitedly tapped on their keyboards, sharing their excitement and surprise.
Words like "Lin Hao is awesome!" and "This performance is simply incredible!" filled the entire page.
The TV sports channel repeatedly played Lin Hao's game highlights.
The host's voice trembled with excitement. "Lin Hao's performance in the finals was truly amazing. He showed the world the strength of Chinese players!"
At school, during the break, students gathered together to discuss Lin Hao's performance, with pride on their faces.
"In the future, I want to be like Lin Hao and create miracles in the NBA!"
The young men who love basketball clenched their fists, their eyes full of longing.
Even the old men and women on the streets were talking about Lin Hao.
Although they may not know much about basketball, they can still feel the honor from everyone's excited expressions.
"This child has made it big and is the pride of our country!"
……
The Lakers team had no time to celebrate their victory before boarding the plane back to Los Angeles.
The tiebreaker will be held at home.
When the Lakers returned to Los Angeles with the glory of victory, although it was already early in the morning, the city streets were still lit up with enthusiasm.
